This story is getting a ton of traction, probably because the accused is a female banker.
This stuff doesn't surprise me at all. After all, JP Morgan banked Epstein for years after his first incarceration.
But I experienced countless examples of deviance at all ranges of the spectrum. Just a couple of examples that come to mind:
1) High yield deal for Chinese billionaire property developer. Doing a global roadshow. The CEO drunkenly assaults a female analyst in a hotel room. Instead of bailing on the deal (and losing the IPO fees), the bank sends her home and continues with the roadshow.
2) My first boss, a Managing Director, never bothered to interview prospective analysts. Waste of his time. One day, he overheard us talking about interviews and that one female Ivy League applicant listed "Glamour Magazine Woman Of The Year" on her résumé. He insisted on the doing the interview (~45 minutes). He came back 10 minutes later and said, "I guess looks were not among Glamour's criteria" and threw the résumé in the trash. He's still a senior MD in London.
3) The hedge fund sales desk only hired attractive female analysts. They referred to them as "tethered goats" and would bring them to all their client drinks.
4) Our head of trading got annoyed at the meekness of an intern and wanted to toughen him up. Made him take a survey of every guy on the trading floor and rank every female on the credit sales team in order of fuckability. And then had him chart it up and present it to us in PowerPoint.
5) Many emerging markets closing dinners were male bankers only because clients typically want to go to dirty karaoke.
I could probably think of a dozen more, but you get the idea....

@LaveenLadharam @miketheunderdog Anywhere in the commoditysphere. Drinks at lunch or after.
Insurance, ship broking. I’m sure there’s other examples.

@miketheunderdog Banks, the armed forces, law firms, magazines.

People complaining about this.
First, plenty of workplaces have bars or a drinks cabinet for people to have a drink in the evening epsecially if they need to wait around: the armed forces, banks, law firms.
Second, bars in Parliament are for staff as for members.
Third, there are two pubs next to the Parliamentary estate where they can have a drink anyway. They do visit but going somewhere safer is sometimes nicer.

🚨Breaking news: MPs are human and sometimes have a drink. Classic clickbait farming 👎 MPs work long days for constituents, and yes, sometimes share a drink in the evening with colleagues. Last week I was scandalously spotted with… an alcohol-free pint or two between votes 😱 But sure, let’s talk about that instead of the Greens’ wacky policies. Trying to distract us, maybe? 🙄

@ewanswilson Hilarious post, especially since it implies there’s something wrong with being a homosexual

Two girls on our train have nicked booze from the train cafe and the on train tannoy has said they will be met in London by British transport police. Wonder if they will get off before London to try to avoid getting arrested 🥴

@silakka @GBPolitcs Why is controlling immigration and prodding more energy bad?

@RealCarlVernon Look at when they banned smoking in pubs and in the workplace. All around the same time too. Funny that!
English
Here in the UK they just banned smoking for under 17s for a lifetime.
They’re just about to do the same in Canada.
You’re not meant to notice how seemingly independent countries are all being systematically destroyed and taken over together.

🚨ABSOLUTE SCENES IN PARLIAMENT!!
Far-left Independent MP Zarah Sultana says Keir Starmer is "gaslighting the nation" and a "BARE FACED LIAR".
She is ordered to leave and she REFUSES, so is *immediately* suspended from the house.
Lindsay Hoyle LOSES IT! 👀

I literally had to go see this for myself. Sure enough. Apple Maps has removed almost every town in Lebanon from the map while keeping every podunk town in Israel and Syria clearly marked.
Ethan Levins 🇺🇸@EthanLevins2
Apple has removed Lebanese village names in Southern Lebanon. As Israel invades, they are already setting the state to justify occupation. I’ve never seen something like this.

Two things I learned after posting this:

- The people demand that this be watchable on streaming again

He should’ve just said he was coming to rape white women in London. They’d have given him a visa.

just to be clear:
two gay men - both of whom worked with children - applied to adopt a baby boy and then raped him to death within 3 months of the child being placed in their care.
